Broken links and search issue

[iNate19]

Since upgrading from vB 3.8 to 4.2, a few issues have been identified that I need help correcting.

1. We have various topics/threads that have links to other topics/threads posted for documentation purposes. Apparently all of those links are appearing broken.

I know that when I take the thread id (which is shown above as 393740) and place it after....

http://rapbattles.com/forum/showthread.php?393740

like - http://rapbattles.com/forum/showthread.php?393740

.... it fixes the link but I'm trying to find a way to do this without having to manually correct each link

2. Our forum has been in place since the early 2000's. Apparently after the upgrade, when you use the forum search / advanced search feature, it will not show results for a long period of time.

A member of ours informed us via the following quote

When I try to search, it only gives me results from up to about a week ago and then skips to like 2003-2004. I'm not getting any results in between those time periods.

Any ideas?

Have you put the fixes into these files
socialgroupmessage.php
socialgroupdiscussion.php
Found in your packages\vbforum\item
class_core.php
Found in your includes
And the fix for the uploader found in clientscript\yui\uploader\assets

[iNate19]

Could you elaborate further please ForceHSS?

socialgroupmessage.php
socialgroupdiscussion.php

are in packages/vbforum/item

1. - Edit the files "socialgroupmessage.php" and "socialgroupdiscussion.php" found in "packages/vbforum/item/"

2. - The original function reads:

protected function getLoadQuery($required_query, $force_rebuild = false)

3. - Change the function to this:

protected function getLoadQuery($required_query = self::QUERY_BASIC, $force_rebuild = false)

Use notepad ++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.6.1.html) to edit the file

Ok... now what about these?
class_core.php
Found in your includes
And the fix for the uploader found in clientscript\yui\uploader\assets
